display supports graphic features and Microsoft Windows icons that the Windows 2000 or
Windows XP operating system supports. An illuminated keyboard is available to facilitate use in
dimly lit areas.
The VX5 provides the power and functionality of a desktop computer in a vehicle mounted unit,
with a wide range of options:

VX5 User’s Guide E-EQ-VX5OGWW-F
Quick Start
This section’s instructions are based on the assumption that your new system is pre-configured
and requires only accessory installation (e.g. antenna, external keyboard and/or barcode scanner)
and a power source.
Use this guide as you would any other source book -- reading portions to learn about the VX5,
and then referring to it when you need more information about a particular subject. This guide
takes you through installation and operation of the LXE VX5.
In general, the sequence of events is:
1. Install Vehicle Mounting Bracket (and keyboard mounting bracket) on vehicle.
2. Secure VX5 in Mounting Bracket Assembly.
3. Connect vehicle power source to VX5 power cable.
4. Connect power cable to the VX5. The power cable can also be connected to a UPS
battery pack, which is then connected to the VX5.
5. Connect accessories to VX5, e.g. scanner, antenna, keyboard.
6. Secure all cables to the VX5 with the Strain Relief Cable Clamps.
7. Turn the VX5 on.
The VX5 and its keyboard should be mounted in an area in the vehicle where it:
• Does not obstruct the vehicle driver’s vision or safe vehicle operation.
• Can be easily accessed by anyone seated in the driver’s seat.

VX5 User’s Guide E-EQ-VX5OGWW-F
The Full-Screen Display
The VX5 Display is a TFT color unit capable of supporting VGA and SVGA graphics modes. The
maximum resolution is 800 x 600 pixels.
VX5 Control Panel
The VX5 control panel contains the status LED, power button and display brightness adjustment
buttons. When the VX5 is on, the status LED is illuminated according to the power supply:
• Green – VX5 is operating from vehicle power or AC power.
• Solid Yellow – VX5 is operating from the UPS, UPS battery is good.
• Flashing Yellow – VX5 is operating from the UPS, UPS battery is critically low.
Microsoft Windows Control Panel
The Microsoft Windows Control Panel and System Tray icons panel provide standard Windows
options for configuring the VX5, such as:
• Sound volume
• Display configuration
• Power management
• PCMCIA card management
Please consult your System Administrator or refer to commercially available Microsoft
Windows user guides or the Windows on-line Help application for these standard Windows
configuration options.
CardBus (PCMCIA) and ATA Slots
The VX5 has two CardBus slots which support either CardBus or PCMCIA formats. These slots
are intended for use with Type I, II or III cards, such as LXE’s 2.4GHz Spread Spectrum radios.
These slots are hot swappable per PCMCIA and CardBus specifications. Please see the “VX5
Reference Guide” for more details.
One ATA PCMCIA slot is also provided for ATA compatible memory devices, such as PCMCIA
flash cards or Compact Flash via an adapter card. This slot IS NOT hot swappable. The VX5
must be powered down to insert or remove a card in this slot.

Figure 8 The 95-key QWERTY Keyboard
Key Maps
The 95-key keyboard supports all 104 keyboard functions (101 keyboard standard plus Windows
keys) and includes an integrated pointing device and left and right mouse buttons. However,
because the keyboard only has 95 keys, all functions are not visible (or printed on the keyboard).
Therefore the VX5 keyboard supports what is called hidden keys -- keys that are accessible but
not visible on the keyboard.
As with a standard keyboard, many keys are found in the Alphanumeric section as well as on the
Numeric keypad (i.e. the 1 key is found on the numeric keypad and above the alpha characters on
standard keyboards). However these keys send distinctly different scan codes when the keys are
pressed.
The hidden keys supported by the VX5 are listed in Appendix A, “Key Maps”.
NumLock and the VX5
For the 95-key keyboard, the NumLock key and the numeric keys are backlit green when
NumLock is off. When NumLock is on, the backlight for the NumLock key and the numeric keys
is amber.
Please refer to the “VX5 Reference Guide” for more information on NumLock.
CapsLock, Scroll Lock and the VX5
For the 95-key keyboard, the CapsLock key is backlit green when CapsLock is off. When
CapsLock is on, the backlight for the CapsLock key is amber.
The Scroll Lock key is backlit green when Scroll Lock is off. When Scroll Lock is on, the
backlight for the Scroll Lock key is amber.
The default values for CapsLock and Scroll Lock are Off.
